Chapter 628 - 624: Tell me, is it a dream?
As soon as Kennedy Green hung up the phone, she dialed Sonia Seaton’s number.
Sonia Seaton answered quickly, “Richelle, everything is settled. You and Roy should prepare for the surgery and get some rest. Let President Green handle the rest.”
Richelle asked, “Master, did you agree to something unreasonable with them?”
South Asian Government, who held her master hostage, was not a good partner.
Sonia Seaton didn’t hide anything, “I didn’t promise them anything. I just told them that if they continue to detain me, I’ll give up my South Asian citizenship and join the East Asian Federation!”
Richelle never expected her master to use that as leverage.
Of course, it was the fastest and most effective way besides giving up the drug production rights.
“Master, your life in South Asia might be difficult after this.”
No one would care about such things as long as you kept them in your heart and didn’t say them out loud.
But once it was exposed, Sonia Seaton’s future situation might not be good.
Sonia Seaton sounded unconcerned, “What’s the problem? I’m still important to them; they won’t dare to do anything. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have agreed to my request just now. Besides, you’re all in East Asia, and I’ll join you sooner or later. If it gets tough here, I can just move there and reunite with you.” Richelle couldn’t say anything more, only choking out, “Thank you, master!” A few months ago, her master was full of dissatisfaction with Roy Lewis and even targeted him.
But now, this trouble-averse person was actually willing to confront the powerful in South Asia for Roy Lewis’s sake!
“Alright, no need to get emotional. I’ll hang up now. You rest well, and tomorrow at noon or evening, I’ll take some time to discuss the surgery plan and details with you.”
Sonia Seaton finished speaking and hung up the phone.
“Richelle, what did your master say?”
Richelle briefly recounted what Sonia Seaton had said. When Kennedy Green finished listening, he was also surprised.
“Richelle, your master used to be an emotionless person. I didn’t expect that you, a half-way disciple, would pull her down to earth.”
Because she valued certain people and things, she gradually learned about human emotions and worldliness.
And because of the people and things she valued, she gradually learned some compromises and flexibility.
After talking to Richelle, Kennedy Green said to Roy Lewis.
“Roy, you must treat Master Seaton well in the future, like your own parents, understand?”
Roy Lewis replied, “I’ve always treated my master like a mother-in-law. That was true before, it’s true now, and it will be true in the future.”
Everyone, who had been tense all night, finally relaxed. The mood in the room became much lighter.
While they were chatting, the South Asian airport had completed all the procedures for the release. The plane carrying the surgical equipment took off slowly.
It wasn’t until they received news from Hugo Camrey about the plane’s departure that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Richelle asked Uncle Axel to bring in some heated midnight snacks. The three of them ate casually before looking at the location map sent by Hugo Camrey through a sanitary phone. Then, Kennedy Green urged Richelle and Roy to get some rest.
Roy and Richelle, knowing their priorities, didn’t refuse. They left the remaining matters to Kennedy Green and Nathan Caroule and went back to their bedroom to rest.
The couple slept until nearly ten o’clock.
The first thing Roy did when he woke up was to call Nathan and ask about the progress.
“Roy, the plane has landed successfully for three hours. The equipment is currently being transported to the military hospital. According to the installation technicians, the equipment should be reassembled and configured by early morning tomorrow. The specific time will be arranged by Dr. Dunn.”
After hanging up, Roy suddenly felt a sense of unreality.
He stretched out his hand to Richelle, “Richelle, pinch me!”
Richelle was still sitting on the bed, looking at him with amusement.
“What, you think you’re dreaming?”
Roy nodded with deep emotion, “Yeah, for so many years, I always felt that I could survive this. But no doctor has ever dared to tell me exactly how successful my surgery will be!”
“Maybe because the success rate is so low, no one dares to give a definite number. Until your master, and you!”
Richelle opened her arms and embraced him in her arms.
“What were you feeling then?”
Roy answered honestly, “I didn’t feel anything. I felt numb, and thought it wouldn’t matter how things turned out. But when Timmy was sent back, I gradually began to be afraid. When you came back to me, although I was confident that you could keep me alive and healthy, I became more afraid.” “You think, is that what they call being melodramatic?”
Richelle pushed him away, grabbed his hand, lowered her head, and bit his arm.
Roy winced, “Richelle, you…”
Richelle let go of his hand, looked up, and smiled at him.
“You tell me, is it a dream?”
